In a revealing interview, Neckbone shed light on whether Tupac Shakur was officially a member of the Mob Piru Bloods after getting a "Mob" tattoo. Contrary to popular belief, Tupac was not formally inducted into the Mob Piru, according to Neckbone. While Tupac got the "Mob" tattoo around the same time as M.C. Hammer and was closely associated with the crew, he primarily observed and supported their operations rather than being a full-fledged member. Neckbone emphasized that Tupac was always a standout, more of a "pop" figure than a traditional gang member, and that the tattoo didn’t make him a hardcore gangbanger. Tupac's connection to the Mob Piru was rooted in mutual respect and shared experiences, but his identity remained distinct. Neckbone also highlighted Tupac’s early references to "mob" in his music years before the tattoo, indicating his long-standing association with the term rather than official membership.
